Estimation of baselines and targets 

Baseline

Existing indicators: as Horizon 2020 is still running, baselines cannot be directly extracted from the current figures. An extrapolation based on the available data is being developed to estimate as precisely as possible the baseline for existing performance indicators.

New indicators: for non-zero baselines, a study has been launched to establish baseline values based on data available from different sources, since no data were collected for these new indicators under the 2014‑2020 programme.

Target

Target values will be set once the baselines are determined. The target‑setting methodology will be based on a mix of both quantitative (trend analysis) and qualitative (expert opinion/policy workshop) methods. It will take into consideration the results obtained so far from the current R&I programme, other data sources, and the ambition of Horizon Europe while ensuring that the value is achievable and realistic.

Estimation of baselines and targets  

Percentage of completion of ITER construction - Baseline, milestone and targets

Procurement Arrangements (PAs) represent the vast majority of ITER expenditure. These are contracts created and defined by the International ITER Organisation (IO), each of which represents specific work to be performed and delivered to IO.

To facilitate the procurements, an ITER "credits" system was introduced. When a PA is created, milestones are defined to mark the progress of its execution. Some of these milestones have ITER credits associated with them, which are released by IO to the Domestic Agency (DA) of each ITER Party on achievement. Obtaining all of the credits for a PA means that the DA has achieved all milestones and therefore fully discharged its obligations for that PA.

The ex-ante profile of credits for each year is known and may only change whenever there is a change of the baseline of the project (scope, budget, schedule). The ex-post assessment of the credits achieved by the seven DAs is known at the beginning of the following year. All values are provided and followed up through the ITER Document Management (IDM) system maintained by IO.

Percentage of Euratom’s in kind obligations discharged by F4E - Baseline, milestone and targets

ITER expenditure is predominantly done through Procurement Arrangements (PAs), which are contracts created and defined by the International ITER Organisation (IO). Each of these represents specific work to be performed and delivered to IO.

As in case of ‘Percentage of completion of ITER construction’ indicator, the ITER "credits" system is used (obtaining all of the credits for a PA means that F4E has achieved all milestones and therefore fully discharged its obligations for that PA). Some milestones, defined at the creation of a PA, have ITER credits associated with them; they are released by IO to European Domestic Agency (F4E) on achievement.

The ex-ante profile of credits for each year is known and may only change whenever there is a change of the baseline of the project (scope, budget, schedule). The ex-post assessment of the credits achieved by F4E is known at the beginning of the following year. All values are provided and followed up through the ITER Document Management (IDM) system maintained by IO.

Estimation of baselines and targets  

Baseline

Transport stand:

·Baseline is zero (0) for all indicators.

Energy strand:

·Baseline is zero (0) for all indicators.

Digital strand

·Baseline is zero (0) for all indicators, as they measure either the number of actions under the programme or the number of new connections to very high capacity networks as a result of CEF II support.

Target

Transport stand:

·Targets will be established by using the available output information from the CEF I programme and adapting it to the changed policy framework. It is to be noted that the number of CEF‑supported actions will depend on several factors, such as size of the proposed actions, and stakeholders’ response to call for proposals.

Energy strand:

·Given that the indicator measuring the number of CEF actions contributing to cost‑efficient reaching of the EU‑shared RES target on the basis of cross-border cooperation in the area of renewables concerns a new programme, the target will be determined taking into account the budget allocated.

·For the other indicators, the target will be set taking into account the number of comparable actions funded by CEF Energy in 2014-2020 and adjusted in consideration of the budget changes and advanced policy objectives.

Digital strand

·The target figure will result from the overall budget of the call topic and the connectivity requirements per project, to be defined in the work programme. An estimated average cost of the action will be calculated to identify the expected target of this indicator.

Estimation of baselines and targets  

For new indicators, the estimation will be based on a mix of qualitative methods. For the indicators that provide contextual information, the targets will be based on past trends. As for the activities supported under CEF (deployment of Digital Service Infrastructures) and ISA2 programme (interoperability in administration applications), the DEP performance framework will build on the corresponding existing framework. This will ensure coherence and continuity in reporting between MFF 2014-2020 and MFF 2021-2027.

Indicator

Baseline

Target

1.1 N. of HPC infrastructures jointly procured

7 Supercomputers (2 precursors to exascale & 5 petascale supercomputers have been acquired in the context of the 2014-2020 MFF)

Based on the EuroHPC regulation, the programme shall procure at least two exascale systems by 2022-2023, and acquire one post‑exascale system, as well as a hybrid HPC/Quantum computing infrastructure by 2027. Additional mid-range supercomputers will be acquired (precursor and petascale supercomputers).

The form of procurement will be identified during the preparation of the work programmes.

1.2 Usage of the exascale and post-exascale computers in total and by various stakeholder groups (universities, SMEs etc.)

The indicator is strictly linked to the implementation of DEP; therefore, at the start of the Programme, the baseline is 0.

To define the targets, we will analyse the usage of supercomputers currently managed by PRACE and define a target that would represent a significant increase.

2.1 Total amount co-invested in sites for experimentation and testing

The indicator is strictly linked to the implementation of DEP; therefore, at the start of the Programme, the baseline is 0. There is no existing TEF offering the kind of services at European level. There are plenty of embryos of facilities, and DEP will invest in scaling them up to reach EU level and MS will co-invest for that scaling up effort.

The remaining 50% co-invested in TEFs (should be the same figure as the DEP funding under TEFs): 195M€.

2.2 Usage of common European libraries or interfaces to libraries of algorithms, usage of Common European Data Spaces and usage of sites for experimentation and testing ) related to activities under this regulation

By construction, the baseline for this composite indicator is 0.

By construction, the target for this composite indicator is 1 (100%). Targets will be defined for each sub-indicator.

2.2.1. Usage of the European AI platform

The baseline will draw from usage levels of the AI4EU platform at the start of the programme.
At the moment it is estimated that 100 resources will be available on the platform by the start of DEP and that between 50-100 additional resources will be added per year (these are not simply assets put on the platform but "ready‑to‑use" assets, tested and fully usable and docked/linked to the right pipelines, and with the right licenses).
Additional services will also be made available through the platform (e.g. access to cloud/HPC computing), and collaboration with other services/initiatives and federation of services even more resources would become available through the AI on Demand platform.
The intensity of usage of these assets will have to be re-assessed later on. Some of the resources will be used extensively and other will be used more for “niche” applications. The multiplication factor is what counts. Because even if some tools can be found elsewhere, the AI on demand platform – as the central and reference access point - aims to guarantee that the resources offered are of quality, ready to use, have the correct license etc.

In addition to providing such resources, the AI-on-demand-platform will offer supports to DIHs - such as "train the trainer" programme

At least 200 "ready to use" resources available on the platform. The target number of the users of such resources will have to be reassessed, based on the experience form the AI-on demand platform funded under H2020, and the demand from the various users of the platform, including EDIHs, etc.

2.2.2. Usage of European Data Spaces

The indicator is strictly linked to the implementation of DEP, as it measures the usage of the TEFs set-up by the DEP programme, therefore, at the start of the programme, the baseline is 0.

500 organisations using the data spaces as data providers or data users. Targets might need to be revised based on data on the final number of data spaces initiated in the first two years of the work programme.

The DEP work programme 2021-2022 will support the establishment of 10 Data Spaces (Green Deal, Health, etc.). Data Spaces will offer a secure and trusted mean to make available data, for both the private and public sector, based upon voluntary agreements or legal obligations where such obligations are in force.

Once data spaces will have been deployed and will be fully operational it is expected that a minimum of 50 organisations per data space will use them as data provider and/or data reuser.

2.2.3. Usage of testing and experimentation facilities.

The indicator is strictly linked to the implementation of DEP, as it measures the usage of the TEFs set-up by the DEP programme; therefore, at the start of the programme, the baseline is 0.

220 users for the 4 sectorial TEFs by 2025 (the lack of any similar experience makes setting an accurate target challenging):
=> projects starting beginning 2023 - 1 year to establish the TEF infrastructure and testing environments and scenarios - therefore the hosting of AI providers to start the testing and experimentation will start in 2024 - each TEF is expected to host about 10 experimenters in the starting phase - i.e. during 2024 - therefore at the beginning of 2025 10 testing times 22 TEFs gives 220 usages of TEFs by 2025.

Regarding Edge AI TEF - 12 users of the edge AI TEF are expected by the end of 2025. Reasoning: Edge AI TEF will have to procure and install the equipment first, so it will be operational in mid/late 2023. That leaves 2 years for running the prototyping and testing activities, which also have some lead-time which obviously it depends on the complexity of the specific projects.
By the end of 2025 the Edge AI TEF is expected to have served around 12 projects (this is an estimate).

2.2a N. of cases for which organisations decide to integrate AI in their product, processes or services, as a result of the Programme

The indicator is strictly linked to the implementation of DEP, as it aims to measure its impact; therefore, at the start of the programme, the baseline is 0.

The lack of any similar experience makes setting an accurate target challenging. Targets will need to be assessed based on data collected about the usage of the various tools offered by the programme measured after 2 years.
Indeed, it is too speculative to give such estimate at this stage, as it should integrate the actions from the Data/Cloud services and DIHs as well, and this will only happen later in the process. We should be able to provide some estimates later in the programme, once the usage of the various tools DIGITAL is provided. The number of take‑up of AI solution in products, services and processes should be a function of the number of AI tools available on the AI-on-demand-platform, the usage of the data-space and cloud infrastructure, the number of "test before invest" of AI tools via DIHS, and the number of AI solutions successfully validated in TEFs.

3.1 N. of cybersecurity infrastructure and/or tools jointly procured.

The indicator is strictly linked to the implementation of DEP; therefore, at the start of the Programme, the baseline is 0.

7 - The number of joint infrastructure or joint actions will be defined by the European Cybersecurity Competence Centre. Today we have none defined yet (as the GB does not exist), we expect MS to agree on a couple to start with, while the Commission wish to see eventually a large number of joint actions

3.2 N. of users and user communities getting access to European cybersecurity facilities

The indicator is strictly linked to the implementation of DEP; therefore, at the start of the Programme, the baseline is 0.

Target is to have at least 20 Member States using each facility. The title of the indicator is not precise enough, number of users or number of communities will lead to significant difference. In view of the point above, the more realistic will be to measure the number of Member States using/committed to the joint action mentioned above.

4.1 Number of persons who have received training to acquire advanced digital skills supported by the Programme

The call has significantly changes from the CEF pilot for Master courses.

To be defined according to the total financial allocation per action and the estimated unit costs (already used in the context of other programmes for similar actions such as European Social Fund (short-term trainings), and the pilot funded under CEF (4 Master's courses to be delivered as of end 2021).

4.2 N. of enterprises, in particular SMEs, having difficulty recruiting ICT specialists

57% (EU 28)

This is a context indicator. Its evolution depends on a number of external factors, in particular on the availability of ICT specialists in the labour market and the demand for these profiles from businesses. This means that if companies become more digitalised, we can expect that the demand will increase, leading to a possible increase in the value of this indicator, even if the offer increases at the same time. The contribution of the programme cannot be isolated in a straightforward manner.

4.2b N. of people reporting improved employment situation after the end of the training supported by the Programme

0.

This is an indicator already used in the monitoring of the European Social Fund. In general terms, the target is that more than 50% of participants have improved their employment situation.

5.1 Take-up of digital public services

By construction, (as the indicator measures progress toward target in percent) the baseline for this composite indicator is 0.

This indicator is a composite indicator measuring the progress towards the uptake targets for selected digital public services supported by the programme used as proxies. For each digital solution to be used as a proxy, one or several sub-indicators will measure its uptake. E.g.: number of projects reusing a solution, score evaluated against the completion of the planned work in the context of the maintenance of a core system, etc. For each sub-indicator, a level of progress is computed based on the baseline and target. This figure cannot exceed 1 (100%).

We then compute an average of these percentages, which give a score for the service. The next step is to compute an average of the scores of each services by topic. Each area has equal weight. Finally, these figures are combined to compute the global score.

Scope of the indicator:

Indicator 5.1 covers the following digital public services, grouped by areas of focus:

1.    Common services platform:

1.1.1.     Take-up of eTranslation (metrics: # of projects reusing the service)

1.1.2.     Take-up of eDelivery (metrics: # of projects reusing the solution)

1.1.3.     Take-up of interoperability testbed (metrics: # of projects reusing the solution)

2.    Once-only principle implementation

2.1.1.     Schedule Performance Index and Cost Performance Index. If the score is higher than one, the planned take-up is on track. If the ratio is less than one, the project is not on track. In ideal conditions, the ratio should be one.

2.1.2.     Number of Member States connected by the end of the action.

3.    Support to an EU electronic identity system

3.1.1.    Number of countries enabled by the funded activities to exchange the new digital identity credentials

4.    Digital services in the area of justice and consumer protection. [The target metric is evaluated against the successful completion of the planned work under each component, as set out in the respective WP. A value of 1 equals 100% of the objectives have been met, a value of 0,5 indicates that the objectives were met partially, and a value of 0 indicates that the objectives have not been achieved]:

4.1.1.    Maintenance and evolution of the core EU justice and consumers systems -

4.1.2.    e-Justice Communication via Online Data Exchange (e-CODEX)

4.1.3.    Common platform for online investigations and enforcement (EU eLab)

Weights:

Each area of focus receives an equal weight to compute the overall score. This table presents an indicative weight distribution.

Area of focus                Weight

Common services Platform            25%

Once Only Principle implementation        25%

Support to an EU electronic identity system        25%

Digital services in the area of justice

and consumer protection            25%

5.2 Enterprises with high digital intensity score

15.4% (2020)

We will assume an acceleration of the trend, or in other words a more rapid increase of the share of companies with at least high digital intensity scores. However, the isolation of the programme’s contribution is not straightforward due to exogenous factors. The rapid evolution of the measured technologies does not allow for a comparable significance of a potential increase of the index across the years.

5.3 Extent of alignment of the National Interoperability Framework with the European Interoperability Framework

Baseline value will be established based on the results collected at the end of 2020.

The Member States are expected to fully implement the EIF. The full implementation of the EIF is equal to a score of almost 4

5.4 N. of businesses and public sector entities which have used the European Digital Innovation Hubs’ services

The indicator is strictly linked to the implementation of DEP; therefore, at the start of the Programme, the baseline is 0.

129 600 (2028)
The minimum target, specified in the impact assessment, is 42 000 for 7 years.

Assuming there will be around 200 EDIHs by 2023, and that the average number of users of test before invest services per EDIH will progressively grow to 200 by 2028, the target can be fixed at 129 600 supported entities.

2. Services Trade Restrictiveness Index (STRI).

The OECD STRI collects information on services trade restrictions across 19 major services sectors. The project has two complementary instruments: a services trade regulatory database and a services trade restrictiveness index. These provide an instrument for the assessment of trade liberalisation and allow countries to benchmark their services market regulations against the global best practice. STRI indices take the value from 0 to 1. Complete openness to trade and investment gives a score of zero, while being completely closed to foreign services providers yields a score of one.

9. Consumer condition index (CCI).

The CCI shows how the single market is performing for EU consumers. The index attempts at gauging: 1) the sentiment of consumers’ trust toward several market agents (i.e. public authorities, retailers, consumer organisations, and existing consumer protection measures); 2) the presence of illicit commercial practices (i.e. as experienced by survey respondents); 3) the consumers’ propensity to complain; 4) the perceived ease of redress; and 5) the perceived safety of non-food products on the market. It is measured on a scale out of 100.

Estimation of baselines and targets  

Baseline

·Specific objective 1: the following two indicators gauge the support provided to national authorities and other partners in the protection of the Union's financial interests through the Union Anti-Fraud Programme:

1.Satisfaction rate of activities (co-) financed by the Programme: the baseline for the programme in 2021 is zero;

2.Percentage of Member States receiving support from the programme. This is a new indicator, which focuses on the nationality of beneficiaries of grants and of the participants in training programmes. The baseline for the programme for 2021 is set at zero.

·Specific objective 2:

User satisfaction rate for the use of IMS: the baseline for the programme is 72% in 2019..

·Specific objective 3:

Number of entries with information for mutual assistance made available and number of supported mutual assistance-related activities: For this indicator, we consider the number of entries in the relevant AFIS applications. The baseline for the programme is 18 639 entries in 2019.

Target

·Specific objective 1:

1.The average user satisfaction rate: A realistic target would be at least confirming by the end of the 2021 2027 MFF the results obtained in the previous programme with Hercule III, i.e., an average satisfaction rate of 95%.

However, taking into account that these results were achieved in the last years (2017-2019) of the Hercule III programme implementation, and considering that the 2021-2027 programme will undergo adaptations based on experience and the mid-term evaluation, OLAF's Strategic Plan 2020-2024 has set lower interim milestones for the Union Anti-Fraud Programme, as follows: 92% for 2022; 95% for 2027;

2.The percentage of Member States receiving support. The average based on 2017-2019 data was 100%. However, this reflected a wider coverage of the indicator, including the nationality of the beneficiaries of the procurement to access commercial databases. For the new indicator, the reference for the previous period was 87%, which is set as target for 2027. Interim targets are set as follows: 81% for 2021, and then increasing 1% per year, to reach 87% for 2027;

·Specific objective 2:

A realistic target would be to maintain the current satisfaction rate of IMS users at 72% (as per the latest survey carried out in 2019).

·Specific objective 3:

The AFIS tool should reach a number of 24 000 entries by 2024 and maintain its/this capacity at the required level until the end of the Programme. For reference, 18 639 entries were reported for 2019.

Estimation of baselines and targets 

Baseline 

Specific objective 1:

·The baseline for the indicators measuring i) the accuracy of navigation and timing services and ii) the availability and continuity of services provided, respectively, by Galileo and EGNOS is calculated based on the reported values in the latest available service performance quarterly reports.

·The baseline for the indicator measuring the EGNOS services’ geographical coverage is calculated based on that reported values in the latest available service performance quarterly reports that include the monitoring of the actual EGNOS performance versus those commitments.

·The baseline for the indicator measuring the EU user satisfaction will be zero.

·The baseline for the indicator measuring the market share of Galileo and EGNOS enabled receivers is calculated based on data from the previous reports.

Specific objective 2:

·The baseline for the indicators measuring i) the number of EU users of Copernicus Services, Copernicus data, and Data and Information Access Systems and ii) where applicable, number of activations of Copernicus Services requested and/or served is calculated based on the reported values and existing indicators for calendar year 2020. With regard to the former indicator, in cases of new data, new service elements, or new data and information distribution channels, the baseline value will be set to zero.

·The aggregated availability index for 2020 will be used as the baseline for the indicator measuring the reliability, availability and continuity of the Copernicus Services and Copernicus data stream.

·The baseline for the indicator measuring the number of information products delivered in the portfolio of each Copernicus Service will be set out on the basis of the number of information products and periodicity, as defined in the Copernicus Service Specifications. On request or ad‑hoc service products, the number of actual requests will be used.

Specific objective 3:

·The baseline for the indicator measuring the number of EU users of SSA components will be set at zero (0) as the future SST Partnership does not exist yet.

·Considering the lack of historical data, the baseline remains TBD and will depend on the type of Space Weather Service selected.

Specific objective 4:

·The baseline for the indicator measuring the number of EU users of GOVSATCOM will be based on formally adopted technical specifications and programme technical expectations

·The baseline value will be determined on the basis of data elaborated by EUSPA (as responsible for of the operations).

Specific objective 5:

The baseline will be zero.

Specific objective 6:

·In absence of historical data, the baseline for both indicators remains to be determined on the basis of an ad-hoc study.

Target

Specific objective 1:

·The targets for the indicators measuring i) the accuracy of navigation and timing services and ii) the availability and continuity of services provided by Galileo and EGNOS, respectively are determined on the basis of the formally adopted technical and operational specifications for each service of Galileo and EGNOS as determined by the Programme Manager.

·The forecast of the target for the indicator measuring EGNOS services geographical coverage is based on the formally adopted technical and operational specifications for EGNOS services evolution, as determined by the Programme Manager.

·The target for the indicator measuring the EU user satisfaction is based on previous survey reports and programme technical expectations.

·The target for the indicator measuring the market share of Galileo and EGNOS enabled receivers is based on previous reports and programme technical expectations.

Specific objective 2:

·The targets for the indicators measuring i) the number of EU users of Copernicus Services, Copernicus data, and Data and Information Access Systems and ii) where applicable, number of activations of Copernicus Services requested and/or served are calculated based on based on previous reports and programme technical expectations taking into account for the former indicator that the number of EU users are growing and for the latter indicator that 100% of requested activations are served.

·The target for the indicator baseline for the indicator measuring the reliability, availability and continuity of the Copernicus Services and Copernicus data stream will be determined based on the formally adopted technical specifications and programme technical expectations.

·The target for the indicator measuring the number of information products delivered in the portfolio of each Copernicus Service will be determined based on previous reports and programme technical expectations. Estimates values will be determined based on previous reports and programme technical expectations. 100% of the specified Copernicus information products are delivered by the Copernicus Service Component.

Specific objective 3:

The targets will be determined taking into account the baseline and the programme’s technical expectations

Specific objective 4:

The targets will be determined taking into account the baseline and the programme’s technical expectations

Specific objective 5:

The target will be will be determined based on historical data on launches previously performed for the EU space programmes and on programme technical expectations for each component under the EU Space Programme.

Specific objective 6:

The targets will be determined taking into account the baseline and the programme’s technical expectations
